Nestlé N&H

From April 2026, our nutrition and health businesses have come together to form a single Nutrition & Health organisation.

For you and your patients, this means bringing together our expertise across everyday nutrition and specialised medical nutrition, so we can better support care across all life stages.

Importantly, this change also enables us to:

  • Strengthen our evidence base, with greater investment in clinical research and real-world insights
  • Accelerate innovation, helping bring new and improved solutions to patients faster
  • Enhance how we deliver for you, with a more joined-up and consistent approach across our portfolio

Over the coming months, you will begin to see our new Nutrition & Health branding. Please be reassured that this is simply a change in name and appearance, our products, the way we work, and your local contact remain the same. You can continue to expect the same support and partnership as always.
